Last week NowThis News reduced its website to a simple one page with links to social media sites. No on page content, all content is posted directly to audiences on social sites.

I’ve been considering this for some time and being shut in during the month of February [thank you MBTA] has focused my mind. All of my future single family home marketing will be done on Facebook video.

Athan Stephanopoulos of NowThis explains:

“Facebook is adjusting their algorithm to benefit those that are using the feed from a native content perspective.”

“The more sophisticated takeaway is that Twitter is worthless for the limited purpose of driving traffic to your website, because Twitter is not a portal for outbound links, but rather a homepage for self-contained pictures and observations.

This is why the recently released native Twitter video feature is so important.

Yes, I can’t stand the “Uber for fill in the blank” convention but here it is from VentureFizz:

“Bite Kite gives its users the perk of having an enjoyable meal without browsing through extensive options. The pre-selected Bite Kite menu offers diverse cuisines ranging from Classic American to ethnic; with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options as well. Equally important to Bite Kite, they said in a statement, is the speed of delivery. All meals are delivered within 5-20 minutes of order confirmation.”

1776: “Cost is the biggest obstacle in Boston, hands-down, according to those in the startup community. The price of rent is close to the highest in the country. That means for companies to find physical spaces is difficult and costly. And for members of startup teams, many of whom are young graduates of the city’s many universities, living costs can easily be out of their desired price range, especially on the housing front.”
